  There is something about the number 3.    
   
  The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two.   
   
  Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois.  It seems good things usually come in threes. 
   
  Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating. 
   
  From their pens to your your ears.

  "It takes a long time to grow a soul, but it's a fascinating process."
  
  Jo March has found her true calling. Alongside her husband, Professor Bhaer, she has opened the doors of Plumfield, an estate turned school where "naughty" boys are given the freedom to grow, learn, and find their better selves. Moving away from the rigid discipline of the Victorian era, Plumfield is a place of pillow fights, gardening, and deep moral lessons, where every child—from the street-smart orphan Nat to the rebellious "wild boy" Dan—is treated with the love and respect they deserve.
  
  A New Generation of the March Family: While Jo remains the beating heart of the story, Little Men introduces a delightful new cast. Watch as Meg's twins, the studious Demi and the domestic Daisy, navigate their childhoods alongside a ragtag group of students. The novel captures the humor and heartache of growing up, proving that the lessons learned on the playground are often as important as those learned from books.
  
  The Philosophy of Kindness: Alcott draws on her own transcendentalist upbringing to create a story that championed progressive education long before it was mainstream. Little Men is a celebration of character-building, gender equality, and the redemptive power of a second chance. It remains a comforting, essential read for anyone who believes that every child has a "gold mine" of potential waiting to be discovered.
  
  Step back into the world of the Marches. Purchase "Little Men" today and experience the joy of Plumfield.

  Short stories have always been a sort of instant access into an author’s brain, their soul and heart.  A few pages can lift our lives into locations, people and experiences with a sweep of landscape, narration, feelings and emotions that is difficult to achieve elsewhere. 
   
  In this series we try to offer up tried and trusted ‘Top Tens’ across many different themes and authors. But any anthology will immediately throw up the questions – Why that story? Why that author?  
   
  The theme itself will form the boundaries for our stories which range from well-known classics, newly told, to stories that modern times have overlooked but perfectly exemplify the theme.  Throughout the volume our authors whether of instant recognition or new to you are all leviathans of literature. 
   
  Some you may disagree with but they will get you thinking; about our choices and about those you would have made.  If this volume takes you on a path to discover more of these miniature masterpieces then we have all gained something. 
   
  In this volume our authors, from all the social classes, make their observations on life as they journey through a fascinating decade of need and greed.  What they reveal may be all in hindsight for us but through their words, the reality of their prose the decade is beautifully dissected and captured.
